This is some pretty bad news. I remember a while back Terry saying that if anything, he would let them build on the lot, but he would mandate a bar space on the ground floor which he would occupy.

I don't know if that was the "Chinese fire water" talking or not...but, oh well. It makes sense and really isn't surprising. It would be nice if some of the places with character stuck around here for a while longer.

Say it isn't so! He was fighting St. Peter's Prep for all those years.... He had the picture of the high rise that he wanted to build up on the wall - I can't believe he would throw in the towel.

The night Sandy hit, my wife and I were drinking in there with Terry. He had his huge book collection brought up from the basement and they were stacked on the tables because his basement had flooded during Irene. He was the only bar downtown that was open, bless him.

We left about an hour before the storm surge came. The saddest part in the days after was stopping in to see Terry, the bar trashed from the surge, a bunch of young adults in there volunteering to help him clean up, and his beloved book collection completely ruined. His banged up old Mercedes never left his little yard after that night.

The man is a JC legend. Farewell Terry - you will be missed.

Friend of mine told me that he's tried to go two weekends in a row and it was closed. I know there were rumors Terry had sold the place, but I was hoping for some kind of news or announcement before they closed so I could have one final karaoke blow out there. Hope it's not true...
